That's as much Ron Dennis's fault as anybody elses.
Besides which, not many people have ever had a 'personal relationship' with Ron.
Niki Lauda - "Ron wasn't the type that attracted me as a friend and, irrespective of how much money he was paying, that wasn't going to change"

Niki Lauda - "Ron Dennis congratulates me and says how pleased he is. I don't believe him for a minute"

Juan Pablo Montoya - "With Ron, you have a nice dinner with him one evening and then when you say 'hi' the next day, he is a totally different person"

Jacques Villeneuve - "I want to say one thing to you - F*** you"

David Coulthard - "The door opened and Ron walked in. I stood up to shake his hand and Ron ignored me. Instead he strode over to sit next to Mika and said, 'What's the plan (for the race), guys?' We all listened to Mika's plans and then Ron said, 'OK, what are they doing?. Here was my team principal talking about me as if I was a rival team. 'They' is not a word you use in a team situation, surely? At that exact moment, I think the naivety, the innocence of my youth, shattered around me"
